1. “So we got up here. I tend to overdo things physically. That's just part of my stupid personality. So we got here and I started hiking up Baldi. Now we come from sea level to here. So I got altitude sickness the first day and puking my guts out about four or five times. At any rate, I had about a week to try to get ready. And then she drove me north to chalice. I think there were seven people on this trip with us. So I met Eric Rye back and these people I was going to be hanging out with for the next few weeks. And we drove 90 miles on a dirt road to the Cobalt Ranger station where you didn't tell them where you were going. You just told them when you expected to be back. I think the cushion was three days. They were going to send people out to look for you.”

2. “Going down into a little valley and climbing rock faces and naming them for the geodesic survey. It's being led by a guy named Eric Ryback, who's the first, at that time, the only person ever to walk the whole Pacific coast, the trail from Canada down to the bottom of Laja. She said, you're going with him. You know, I was a rock climber at the time, so she knew that about me. I said, how do you know? She said, because I signed you up. So it was like I had no choice in the matter.”

3. “Do this workshop, and she said, Well, you're going to come with me. And I went, no, I'm waiting for the phone to ring to tell me whether I've got a job or not. And she said, does the phone really have to ring for you to kick you in your ass to go anywhere? Can't you just do something on your own? And I went, I don't know. And she said, well, you can because there is a group of people who are leaving from a place she wasn't sure where, as it turns out, it was Challice, Idaho, that they're leaving on the following dates, which was like a week after her workshop started. She said, they're going into an area called the Big Horn Crags, the biggest primitive area in the contiguous United States, bigger than anywhere except Alaska. And they're going to be doing high mountains. This is in July. They're going to be doing high mountain traverses in snow and ice for three days.”

4. “A bunch of years ago, so we've been up here for, I'm not sure the exact number, but in the mid to high 40 years, we were living in LA. My wife probably throws on the wheel as well as any two dozen people on the plan. She's really a good potter. She was accepted to a summer workshop, was invitation only to the best ceramic artists in this country. And it was going to last all summer long. And we were living in LA. We had a place in Topanga. So she said we had a VW van, typical hippie-dippy, live out of the back of it. She was going up with our two daughters.”
